Sun Yue and other Yan Wang Party learned the news that night, saying that Zhao Guangyi wanted Lu Duan to come and do some work for Quan Zhihe-Nan Mansion. This is a relatively troublesome thing.

Generally, small fish and shrimp can be used to power with their current power and ability, but Lu Duan is different. It’s just that someone is a good assistant to the government, and you kick away the sugar beef and demoted to become a prefect. Can they be happy?

No matter how special Luoyang is, Quan Zhihe-Nanfu is just a prefect. It is obvious that this is sorting out the Political Affairs Hall. Some of this is Zhao Guangyi's opinion and some of it is Zhao Pu's opinion. It is really hard to say.

Although Sun Yue was so fierce that he had spoken out before, did he really dare to kill Lu Duan? Maybe he really dared, but he needed Zhao Tingmei's consent, otherwise it would be easy to become the father and son of the Sun family to take over power.

Taizu once said that Lu Duan is not confused about major issues, but I just hope that he will not be confused this time.

According to Sun Yue's own division, Lu Duan should belong to the stability maintenance faction. This faction is completely distinguished by Sun Yue's personal ideas, and it is not necessarily accurate. Generally speaking, the current imperial court can be divided into four factions, and the most powerful one is this stability maintenance faction, which is typically Cao Bin and Lu Duan.

You say you are loyal to Zhao Guangyi, but they have to make every effort to maintain stability so that the country will not fall apart, so that the people can overcome the hurdle in front of them smoothly and continue to live their peaceful days. For this purpose, they will unswervingly implement Zhao Guangyi's rule. But in the same way, once there is a greater power than Zhao Guangyi and enough to replace it, changing the party does not seem to be a burden for them.

In addition, the most should be the wait-and-see school. Typically, Shi Shouxin and others are some soldiers in their hands and no real power to decide the outcome. They have no feelings for Zhao Guangyi. They want to do something but dare not, and want to observe the situation before making a decision. Simply put, they are inaction, neither busy with allegiance nor in a hurry to make trouble. According to Zhao Tingmei's meaning, these Yan Kings are actually more suitable for sharing this wave.

There is another faction that is completely royalist, that is, those who have been loyal to Zhao Guangyi before, such as Lu Duosun on the surface, and Xue Juzheng, who is not easy to determine whether it is.

Finally, there is another faction that is not sure whether it is there, that is, the ambitious faction. At present, Fu Yanqing seems to have some meaning in this regard, but Sun Yue feels that he, an old man who is in his eighties, should not be so painful. Instead of paying attention to him, it is better to pay attention to Zhao Pu, who regained power.

So from Zhao Tingmei's perspective, if Lu Duan could be obedient, it would not be completely unacceptable. At least he could really make certain checks and balances against the Sun family and his son. As for whether he had any ideas in this regard, even Sun Yue could not see it very accurately now.

Therefore, a character like Lu Duan can satisfy Zhao Guangyi's ability to suppress Zhao Tingmei, and on the other hand, it can also make Zhao Tingmei balance the Sun family's father and son, which has two attributes, and it also makes the Sun family dare not do anything to him. I have to say that they are very clever in this trick.

Of course, an official as big as Lu Duan is definitely not Zhao Guangyi’s puppet. No one can see clearly what will happen in Luoyang in the future.

This is just a change in Luoyang's city and land. Zhao Guangyi's skills are objectively good, and he is even much better than Zhao Kuangyin in these political struggles. He used this imperial method to the fullest, and he calmly completed his turbulence.

In this way, all the civil and military officials in the court stayed in Luoyang for another two days. Under the leadership of the Yanwang Party, they visited Luoyang City and promoted the political stance of moving the capital in the future. Then they scattered in a hurry and did not make any mistakes, although they were almost every day during this period.

Life seems to have returned to the track it should be. After more than two months, it seems calm and not too different from before.

Until, in this undercurrent situation, Zhao Guangyi, who had barely settled down, finally began to take the big move: the imperial examination. Zhao Guangyi began to break the deadlock with an incredible method that seemed almost violently.

How can the imperial examination be called a means of breaking the deadlock? Haha, it depends on how many people you recruit.

During the Tang Dynasty, the imperial examination usually recruited more than ten people, and often they rarely exceeded thirty, and wherever there were a gap, they were filled. During the period of Zhao Kuangyin in the Song Dynasty, they expanded slightly, and recruited about forty people in one subject, never more than one hundred. Zhao Guangyi admitted more than four hundred people with a stroke of his pen!

All the civil and military officials in the court were stupid, and there were only a few vacancies in the court! Could it be that this new official family intends to practice some extraordinary books and is in urgent need of pens? As a result, Zhao Guangyi's usage was shocking. Among so many people admitted to this subject, there were not many wasted people, and he actually entrusted them to reuse them! More than 400 people, all!

How to use it? It's very simple. Throw it into the imperial guards, throw it onto the border town, throw it onto Luoyang, throw it onto everything that he doesn't have a strong grasp, and don't compete with you big guys for food, so they can fill them with the sixth and seventh grades. It doesn't seem very important, but it's the most basic position.

My new official family has no military achievements, so you don’t accept it, right? No problem, isn’t it great that you are a group of arrogant soldiers and powerful generals have been on the battlefield? Don’t you look down on me? Isn’t it okay if I don’t play with you anymore? I’m going to play with those scholars. These stupid and cute white papers are always absolutely loyal to me, the new official family.

Why do those arrogant soldiers and generals challenge me as an official? Isn’t it because the big soldiers below all listen to you? But in any army, I have never heard of generals directly commanding small soldiers? Don’t you still have to rely on those middle-level or even low-level officers? I don’t touch your legs. Isn’t it enough for me to expand this class?

To compare, it is like in later generations that there are only six battalions in a regiment, and the regiment commander directly commands six battalions. Now there are still these six battalions. I will give you thirty-two battalions commanders in one go, and each will cooperate with each other to restrain each other. You can command it. Not to mention rebellion, you can understand that you can command the war. Even if you can't convince the public, you can't play a role in decentralization. You can always be disgusted.

This is how the redundant officials in the Three Viciouss of the Song Dynasty came.
